foreign I believe that the Lord wants us to stop worrying to stop pondering and wondering about what might happen tomorrow stop spending your effort and your energy thinking about what could happen tomorrow or even what should happen you are blessed in this very moment and on this day One Pastor said don't borrow trouble and that means don't worry about all the what ifs that we could face someday what if there is a Health crisis a financial setback or or even some unimaginable type of problem don't borrow trouble for the future but instead walk by faith and not by sight so I encourage you today to stay present with the Lord stay present in your mind and in your soul do that by acknowledging Psalm 118 Verse 24. this is the day that the Lord has made we will rejoice and be glad in it but when we let worry and anxiety consume us it stops being adaptive it becomes destructive it becomes enslaving instead of focusing on God we focus on all the things that could possibly go wrong things that we usually have no control over but there's someone who is in control Our Risen Savior Jesus Christ understand that the God who made the heavens and the Earth is the same God who was watching over us right now is intimately involved in every situation he is infinitely good and infinitely wise he sees everything that could possibly happen he sees our worries and yet he commands us not to fear He commands us instead to trust him he knows what's best for us even more than we do and he knows that in the end Satan will be defeated Love Will Conquer All and the forces of Darkness will be no more see no matter what's going on in our lives God is in control no matter what's going on in the world God is in control and whether you understand it or not God is in control nothing is a surprise to him nothing catches him off guard God sees the entire timeline of the Earth from beginning to the end God is in control I love the verse in Psalms 37 it says I have been Young and now I am old yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken that's what I call a faith verse it's one that's meant to strengthen your faith it's meant to encourage you to keep the faith when we're struggling it can be easy to think that God has abandoned us after all he has the power to deliver us was just one word he could make all our pain go away in an instant and yet this is not typically the way that God chooses to work sometimes he allows us to go through deep waters before providing a way out but that doesn't mean he doesn't love us that doesn't mean he has forsaken us it simply means he has a better plan even if we don't understand it one of the biggest enemies you will ever face will come in the form of worry and anxiety and in life I'm sure we can all agree that there will be some things that are in your control that you'll worry about there will be things that are out of your control that you will worry about and while it's so easy to fall into a state of worry and one of his teachings Jesus gave us the message that we should not worry about tomorrow will take care of itself and I believe that the Lord was telling us to be present in the moment to be at peace today to be joyful today if you spend all your time in energy worrying then you will always magnify the lack in your life or the pain in your life worry is all to do with if if I can't pay this if I don't get treated if they find something but instead you should choose to adopt a new attitude where you do not worry about tomorrow an attitude where you're thanking the lord for today your thanking God for his goodness even while you're waiting on your miracle you're thanking God for what he has provided even though there are things that you lack when you do this then you magnify Jesus Christ instead of magnifying your problem Matthew 6 verses 25 through 27. therefore I tell you do not be anxious about your life what you will eat or what you will drink nor about your body what you will put on is not life more than food and the body more than clothing look at the birds of the air they neither sow nor reap nor gather into Barns and yet your heavenly father feeds them are you not of more value than they and which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life the Bible also says in Matthew 6 34. therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow for tomorrow we'll be anxious for itself sufficient for the day is its own trouble a believer in faith will pray and say God stand with me in the storm I'm facing a Believer with worry will pray and say God what if the storm destroys me what if it never ends how come you're not stopping this but for the person who wants to live their life in the way God intended you have to decide you have to make a choice how will you handle worry at one point or another you will face something that will make you worry [Music] it is wonderful that we are told to cast all your cares on Jesus everything that bothers you cast it to the Lord everything that worries or concerns you cast It All to Jesus because he cares for you with the deepest affection and he watches over you very carefully the word of God says in First Peter 5 verses 7 through 9. casting all your anxieties on him because he cares for you be sober minded Be watchful your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour resist him firm in your faith knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your Brotherhood throughout the world [Music]
